According to sources around LSU, Valentine continues to experience a myriad of "personal issues," that continue to plague his collegiate playing career and may keep him off the field this entire spring. Media members that filled the sidelines at LSU's first padded practice on Saturday in hopes of catching a glimpse of Valentine's much-anticipated debut quickly noticed that he was missing, again.

Miles directly addressed the issue.

How pitiful of a writer must you be to not include the Head Coach's comments on the matter.

I know. Miles is known to be a such straight shooter.

Les: TV doesn't have "want".
The rest is as mysterious as ever.

I think that is exactly what he said.

Also, its a LSU team discipline keeping him off the field.

I think the staff has moved on. If he can ever play, great.

The truth of the matter is simple, but surprising:
Travonte Valentine = Voldemort= Ratphuc Hobley.
You heard it here first.

Miles said there were things they wanted Valentine to do academically that he wasn't getting done - pretty clear why he isn't at spring ball. Not sure if that qualifies as "personal" issues, but it seems the writer could have been more specific.

This sucks for the School and coaches that put so much effort on certain players and they can't even manage to do their part to get eligible.

You know it's gotta get old for them.

He said he got a 2.5 gpa and was cleared for spring ball In February

Then he's a no show. Something is up.

Must be due to his love for chocolate cake.
